Bank of Mark Cuban open to raps?

http://espn.go.com/dallas/nba/story/...ank-cuban-open Mark Cuban says he is looking to make deals before the trade deadline and he is not afraid to take on big money contracts. Maybe he might want Bargnani to play with Dirk. Do Dallas have anyone we want? Maybe we can get Vincent back to finish his career and mentor the young ones.

Seems like Cuban is running out of hope in landing a big time free agent like Howard or Paul so he's willing to now take on a big contract. Can't see them interested in a Raptor. Maybe Lowry but then they don't really have anything that I would want from them.

Could be a good team to use as a facilitator but Dallas seems to always think big.

Isn't this actually a bad thing for the Raptors because they are more likely to end up with the players we want, ie. Milsap, Big Al, Gay, Josh Smith etc.. They have positioned themselves to provide tax releif for any team looking to get under the salary cap haven't they?

this is irrelevant point because the Raps are not going into the luxury tax any time soon and all the A-list players will command a near max salary, which we can't afford at this point; unless we amnesty Barny...

Utah clears space for Favors/Kanter and get back a promising young big in Special Ed. They also shore up their PG position with JC (with Mo out they're starting Tinsley fer crying out loud!) and get a steady back up big rental in Kaman.

Toronto gets back Millsap, who I think most of us would love to see here, and Collison who has been very hot n cold this year but is still young and has the physical tools to be a good defender, plus he's cheap.

Mavs get Big Al Jeff. They keep most of their core but open up el banco di cuban for a legit 20/10 post presence who will take all kinds of pressure off of Dirk and likely be a huge asset in helping them to the dance.

I love it.. would love to have Millsap and his Bird rights. A bit of a gamble since Millsap still might explore free agency and we could lose Ed for nothing, but I'd probably still do it.
